It’s a “predicted reliability score.” It is a guesstimate based on other products from the manufacturer. It’s as close as one car get under the circumstances. It’s hardly stupid and it is hardly definitive hence the word “predicted.”

Engineers: turning fun things into tedious work since the Babylonian Empire.

God this race is gonna be amazing and awful.

Go ahead, be crotchety. You have every right to be so.

apparently you’ve never been in an old house, rattle magnification 500%

Same here. A year ago the teen across the street from me would come home after his fast food job, and let the bass boom song finish in their driveway, then turn it off. I’m only 30, but I became the crotchety old man yelling at those darn kids to turn their radio down! I had subs in my first few cars, but i always…

Surprised she didn’t complained about the smell of their disgusting cheese.

I know this is Fancy Kristen, but I can seriously get along with a lot of points raised in this article. This is what as a snobby American I could write about the perceived snobby French.

“Blow the carbon out” as they say.

Not really good at picking up on internet sarcasm are ya? :)

Whooosh!!!!

Have to wonder how many legendary manufacturer catastrophes and recalls would have been a moot point if every company kept the kind of user records and e-blackbox info that Tesla does. Can’t imagine Toyotagate or almost any of the unintended acceleration claims of the past two decades would have been as prevalent, nor…

What a fool, that’s clearly the passenger’s side door.

Someone else said it much better than I.

Seconded.

Cuss all you want in the body of the article, but for the love of God can you stop dropping F bombs in the title of articles, particularly for something that everyone wants to read like The Morning Shift? You are going to get banned by our IT people, and then I’m going to have to work,
